I'll agree to that. I have absolutely no investment or interest in this Bowl. I'm technically rooting for the Eagles but even that I don't really care about. Give me a complete shit show. I already have a suspicion that the viewership numbers for this game are going to be lower than last years, there's nothing for the rest of the fans of the NFL to give a shit about with these two teams playing.
I want a game so terrible that I can't look away. I want the coin toss to be fucked up, I want calls so terrible that the missed pass interference call from the 2018 NFC Championship game with the Saints and Rams looks good by comparison. I want an all out 10 man blitz on an obvious screen pass, I want 9 men to be on the field for defenses for at least 4 plays each team, I want the defenses to be so bad that both Defensive coordinators get fired. I hope that the game goes into so many overtimes that the game ends after 1 am on the west coast so everyone is so dead tired for work tomorrow and half the country calls in sick. I want this game to be such a train wreck that we end up talking about every single play from now until the end of April with the NFL draft so I don't have to spend 2 months listening to Aaron Rodgers trade rumors, the Lamar Jackson and Kyler Murray issues, and how some WR from a small D1 program running a 4.58 vs a 4.57 effects his draft stock.
 
I just want Rihanna to do some retarded Black Panther (the political group, not the capeshit stuff) themed halftime show that makes Beyonce's show from about six years ago look good by comparison. I want there to be seething, I want the Youtube commentators to have so much grift material for a week. Won't someone think of the grifters?
 
For anyone who wanted a primer about the current bullshit surrounding the Chicago Bears and their issues with getting a new stadium (and another reminder that Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is one of the worst mayors in the United States):

That's an alien in the thumbnail
Soldier Field's a fucking dump and I won't miss it for a second. Fly, fly away bears.
Didn't help the renovation were so bad it was removed from the list of National landmarks/monuments (I forgot which) and Da Bears had a proposal to put a dome over it

So if the game is rigged which team winning because of Refball would cause more chaos?
 
Refball needs to be so obvious towards one team to get chaos. It doesn't matter who, as long as its so bad its obvious to everyone
My gut says the Chiefs will get the refs help like in their last match
Also here's the stream I'm listening to on the side
 
Hell, I have not even figured out how I am going to watch the damned game yet.

Is this a game worth watching?
If you're neutral, then yeah, it should be. Both teams have been hot all year, Eagles are probably more balanced on either side of the ball than the Chiefs are, but at least the Chiefs D is spotty enough that I don't think it'll be a horribly boring slog for anyone who doesn't like 1930's football (like 53 was).

Streams are usually easy enough to find, even on YouTube. You just have to travel around sometimes as the bots play whack-a-mole with the restreamers.

Go Eagles!

I don't know if I'm getting older and more jaded, but I just haven't had any interest in the playoffs this season, even before my team got eliminated.

I can't tell if it's a sign of mild depression or that sports just isn't that important in the larger scheme of things to me.
 
Is there really a huge crime problem along the waterfront? I thought it was mostly contained to the ghettoes on the South/West side.

I was in that area of the South Loop for medicine-related stuff five years ago, and unless something dramatically changed since that time it's entirely fine.

It's kinda close to the hood, I guess.

Chicago resident until late 2021. It's all a shithole now. Even neighborhoods like Lakeview have regular crime.
 
I'm watching a pirated stream so I can see the American commercials and not the shitty Canadians ones. Streamer played the Russian national anthem over the American one for a joke and got me for a second lol.

I noticed the multi color military uniforms to make up the pride flag during the anthem and the all female fly over. Could be worse but those were weak renditions.

Also 'Cocaine Bear' looks awesome.
